Quick Glance: 81-Year-Old Shoots Innocent Uber Driver Amid Scam Threat
- An 81-year-old man from West Virginia who fatally shot an innocent Uber driver after they were both scammed said he had been warned that he and his family would be killed unless he paid $12,000.
- Chilling 911 audio obtained revealed more details about the March 25 shooting, leaving 61-year-old Loletha Hall dead and William Brock behind bars on a murder charge.
- Brock allegedly shot Hall three times after being threatened by a stranger on the phone, claiming a relative had been incarcerated and demanding $12,000 for release, leading to Brock's arrest on murder charges.
- Investigators tracked the scammer's call to Canada but believe he used a burner phone, and highlighted that there was no active threat from Hall, resulting in Brock's murder charges for failing to contact authorities while brandishing a firearm.
